THE EVIDENCE BASE FOR CHILD
PSYCHOTHERAPY
The evidence base for psychodynamic child
psychotherapy is somewhat limited as randomized
controlled trials (RCTs) have been few in number.
A 2004 systematic review identified 32 studies, not-
ing that many had limitations of study design and
sample size. Only five were RCTs and four were
quasi-RCTs [6]. Though small in number, these
latter nine studies represent 33.3% of the total
reviewed – a proportion that compares favourably
with the 7.4% of experimental/quasi-experimental
281
